At last, a city builder purely focused on trains.

That wouldn't be an inaccurate description of Cities in Motion 2, which was the messy in-between stage between Cities in Motion (trains) and Cities Skylines (city builder)

Looks nice. But is it nice gameplay?

I put some hours into it a few months ago and had a good time, but one of the things that I hope they add is better conditions for routes. Maybe I was missing something, but I was having a hard time getting my workers to actually get in the trains I wanted them to.

how does it compare to OTTD? imo the big reference in the genre :)

The gameplay feels more like anno but where you control all of the logistics instead of it being automatic.

Did it change much since initial EA? I remember the signalling being weird for me at launch
